    great movie!!!!
    By far one of Milla Jovovich's best films.I first saw it when i was around 9 or 10 and watched it over and over.It has pretty much everything in it, adventure, romance, drama,etc..This is the film that got me into foreign films even though I'm not sure how foreign it is, this is also one of the movies that got me into studying foreign cultures and customs. It's definitely a great story and something the whole family can watch together.The scenery is awesome, i love the way the movie plays out , you never know whats going to happen(well the first time you see it anyway :)).I don't wanna say too much more or i'll just end up spoiling it for you. You really need to see this movie to understand how great it is!
